Los Angeles Lakers Form
Los Angeles enter this matchup having seemingly got back on track, rebounding from five defeats in six games with back-to-back victories.
The Lakers began 2026 strongly as they reeled of three consecutive wins, following up back-to-back wins over Memphis, 128-121 and 120-114, with a 111-103 success in New Orleans.
That run was ended by a 107-91 loss in San Antonio though, and that was followed by a 105-101 home defeat to Milwaukee and a 124-112 loss in Sacramento.
Los Angeles then failed to build on a 141-1106 blowout of Atlanta as they were beaten 136-117 by Charlotte and 132-116 in Portland.
The Lakers have not lost since though, downing Toronto 110-93 at home before heading to Denver to start this long road trip with a 115-107 victory over the Nuggets.
LA Clippers Form
LA come into this game on the back of a defeat, but in fantastic form overall with 13 wins in their last 16 games.
The Clippers lost five straight in December, but rebounded before Christmas to kick off a five-game win streak to end the year.
They then made it six-in-a-row in their 2026 opener, before suffering some mixed form over the next few games as they sandwiched a 1030-102 win over Golden State with defeats to Boston, 146-114, and New York, 123-111.
LA came roaring back though, beating Brooklyn 121-105 and Detroit 98-92 on the road, before returning home to down Charlotte 117-109 and Washington 109-105.
The Clippers then made it six-in-a-row on the road as they beat Toronto 121-117 in overtime and Washington 110-106 in regulation, only to see their run end with a 138-110 loss in Chicago.
Verdict
The Clippers suffered a blowout road defeat last time out, but they have been in good form for weeks and they have been strong on the home court.
They could also have Kawhi Leonard back for this one, so we expect a repeat of last month’s home win over the Lakers.
